Man's traditional outfit

This outfit included the Gustowe hat, yoke, cuffs, aprons, leggings, moccasins, bandolier bag and shirt. The whole outfit took about one and a half years to complete, and coordination with other artists was needed to complete the silver armbands and hatband, as well as the shirt. Clan symbols of bear, wolf and turtle appear on different pieces of the outfit, as well as the eagle on the bandolier bag. White beaded edging is prominent on just about every item of the outfit, which is beaded on black velvet, except for the apron which is black wool. The red shirt has the six diamonds of the Oneida wampum belt appliqued on the front of it. This signifies the expansion of the Iroquois Confederacy to include a sixth tribe, the Tuscaroras.
